The president's birth certificate is on line, and has been for nearly three years. So is the Factcheck.Org study of what is real and what is fake... the claim that Obama was not born in Hawaii being the fake part.

Trump ruined any chance with his pursuit of the matter concerning Obama's birthplace and puts him in the same category as Sara Palin. Just big mouthed idiots with nothing of real value to offer the American people. We have many problems in our country and would expect nothing less than real solutions to our real problems.

It's a smart move by Pawlenty. He makes the lunacy over the issue look trivial and shows independents who might otherwise lean left that he's concerned with more pressing issues, and will be considered more of a viable option than some of the other wingnuts the right is trying to pass off as potential candidates.

Oh really Tim Pawlenty? Your belief's mean nothing, let's see some proof that Obama is an American, because he certainly doesn't appear to be by action or deed.....If he is an American, what is he hiding?

His Birth certificate? His passport? His school records? His social security number? His selective service records? His medical records? What is it that convinces you Tim Pawlenty that Obama is a natural born citizen? Have you seen his well hidden paper trail? Who are you to tell Trump anything?

Pawlenty is the first and only rational Republican. Donald Trump is a joke, a loser who has not a chance in hell of even winning one primary contest much less the presidency in 2012. The Republicans are doing everything they can to bury themselves and we Democrats are just standing on the sidelines laughing!!!! Mark Montgomery NYC, NY boboberg@nyc.rr.com

Come on.. the far right is so deeply intrenched in their racist, TeaKlan hatred of Obama, that any document that's released will quickly be rejected.

Obama released his birth certificate a few years ago, and it's available online to see... The then Republican governor of HI confirmed it, and the now Governor of HI wants to cash in on those who are making demands of it ( though that's somewhat illegal)...

As if re-releasing it would quell the right's frothing hatred of Obama? They simply would cast yet more proposterous conspiracy theories.

Obama is doing the right thing. Stay the course... Obviously, the Supreme Court did not have a problem with his birth certificate when they swore him in as President...

You have to love the right wing lunatic fringe.. they add the "stupidity" spice to American politics.
